Peru observes a paid holiday on October 8th commemorating the Battle of Angamos. Employees required to work on this Thursday, October 8th, will receive additional compensation. The specific amount depends on whether the worker is granted a substitute day off. If a substitute day is provided, the worker is entitled to double their regular daily wage for the hours worked on the holiday. However, if no substitute day is granted, the worker receives triple their regular daily wage for hours worked on October 8th in Peru. This ensures fair compensation for those who forgo their holiday to maintain essential services. The “Combate de Angamos” is a significant national holiday in Peru.
